Bybit referral code: WEB3 & MICA
Bybit runs two platforms. Use code WEB3 on the global site (bybit.com) or MICA on the EU/EEA site (bybit.eu, MiCA-regulated) to unlock Bybit's welcome rewards. Pick the one for your region below.
For traders outside the EEA — the full global Bybit platform.
For traders in the EEA — Bybit's MiCA-regulated European platform.
Use the code for your region. EEA residents must sign up on Bybit's MiCA-regulated EU platform (bybit.eu) with MICA; everyone else uses the global site (bybit.com) with WEB3. Both are free and applied at sign-up.

Two codes, because Bybit has two platforms
To comply with the EU's MiCA regulation, Bybit runs a separate European platform (bybit.eu) alongside its global one (bybit.com). Each has its own referral code. Using the wrong one for your region means the code simply won't apply — so match it to where you live.
EEA residents (the EU plus Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway) sign up on bybit.eu with MICA. Everyone else uses bybit.com with WEB3.

A Bybit referral code — also called an invitation or promo code — is upside for a new user: it makes you eligible for Bybit's welcome rewards and costs nothing.
Bybit's welcome rewards
Signing up with a referral code makes your account eligible for Bybit's new-user welcome rewards — bonuses you unlock by completing simple tasks like a first deposit and trade. It costs nothing to enter the code.
Applied at sign-up
The code binds to your account when you register through the link, so there's no coupon to redeem later. Just make sure you use the code for your region — WEB3 (global) or MICA (EU/EEA).
Same account, same rewards
Using our referral link never changes your fees, limits, or the rewards you're entitled to — it only tells Bybit who referred you. You get exactly what any referred user gets.
A full-featured exchange
Behind the code sits one of the largest crypto exchanges in the world: spot, perpetuals, options, copy trading, bots, Earn and a card — all from one account.
How to use the Bybit referral code

Frequently asked questions
What is the Bybit referral code?
It's a code you enter (or that's pre-applied via a link) when you sign up on Bybit, so your account is credited to a referrer and becomes eligible for Bybit's new-user welcome rewards. There are two: WEB3 for the global site (bybit.com) and MICA for the EU/EEA site (bybit.eu).
Which code should I use — WEB3 or MICA?
It depends on where you live. Residents of the EEA (the EU plus Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway) sign up on Bybit's MiCA-regulated EU platform bybit.eu with code MICA. Everyone else uses the global platform bybit.com with code WEB3. The wrong-region code won't apply.
Why does Bybit have a separate EU platform?
The EU's Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) regulation requires crypto exchanges serving EEA residents to operate under an EU authorisation. Bybit set up a dedicated MiCA-regulated European entity (bybit.eu) for that, separate from its global platform (bybit.com).
Is the referral code free to use?
Yes. A referral code costs nothing and never changes your fees or the rewards you're entitled to — it only tells Bybit who referred you. You receive exactly what any referred new user receives.
Do I need to verify my identity (KYC)?
Yes. Bybit requires identity verification to trade and withdraw on both the global and EU platforms. You complete KYC after registering, before the account is fully usable.
Can I add a referral code after signing up?
No — Bybit binds the referral code at account creation, so it can't be added to an existing account. Use the link for your region when you first sign up.
Is this site run by Bybit?
No. This is an independent site that shares working Bybit referral codes and explains the program honestly. We may earn a commission if you sign up through our links, at no extra cost to you.

How to use a Bybit referral code
Applying a Bybit referral code is simple, but two things trip people up: choosing the right platform for your region, and understanding what the welcome rewards actually require. Get both right and you'll sign up on the correct Bybit, with the referral credited, and know exactly what to do to unlock a reward.
Read guideBybit EU vs global: which one applies to you
If you're trying to sign up for Bybit and you're not sure whether to use bybit.com or bybit.eu — or why there are two referral codes — this is the guide. The split isn't a marketing gimmick; it's a regulatory requirement, and picking the wrong platform for your region means your referral code won't apply and, for EEA residents, that you're on a platform you'll soon be moved off anyway.
Read guideBybit fees explained: what you actually pay
Bybit's fees are straightforward once you separate the two products — spot and derivatives — and understand that a referral code and your fee rate are two different things. This guide lays out the actual numbers from Bybit's published fee table and is honest about what the referral codes do and don't change.
